Open our eyes and hearts to find the blessings
On March 10th, Wanda, Andrew’s goat delivered three kids, unfortunately they all passed away. A couple days after the birth, Wanda developed and infect and pneumonia. Todd and Andrew worked hard to restore Wanda’s health, but Wanda’s weak body could not fight the pneumonia. Today, she passed away while Andrew was at school. Andrew again is heart broken, but relieved that she is not suffering and ill any longer.
On January 6th I introduced you to Wanda and wrote: “I am sure there will be more stories of White Wanda coming. I am looking for the blessings.” When we are surrounded with disappointment and death, it is hard to find the blessings, but they are there. Andrew has learned valuable lessons about love, life and death and the life on a farm. When we are going through the challenging times it is critical for us to look for the blessings. The blessings are there some times we just need to open our eyes and hearts to find them.
Blessings

I'm so sad for Andrew. Praying that more blessings become obvious in the next few days and weeks while he mourns her.
